[PATCH] Thaw userspace and kernel space separately.

[Nigel Cunningham]

Modify process thawing so that we can thaw kernel space without thawing
userspace, and thaw kernelspace first. This will be useful in later
patches, where I intend to get swsusp thawing kernel threads only before
seeking to free memory.
